Up Close Whale Watching

2022-07-13

It doesn’t get much better than actually touching a whale! Or being showered with their breath! The panga captains know the lagoon and the whale behavior, and the guides explain it all to the passengers. Lots of close encounters, as the whales apparently have no fear of humans in this lagoon. The encounters are on the whale’s terms, with lots of respect for the whales shown by the captain’s handling of the boat.
